Raphaël Sévère releases a new album dedicated to Mozart’s concerto and quintet, in collaboration with the Modigliani Quartet and the Orchestre de Chambre de Paris conducted by Lars Vogt.

“In the terrible period when we were all deprived of culture, Mozart’s music has really been life-saving for me, it has truly filled my life. To make up for these months of solitary confinement, I have worked on several recording and composition projects. But for want of partners, audiences, encounters, I was overwhelmed with a great feeling of emptiness. Music only makes sense if it is shared.”

The present album features a return to the artist’s life. A rebirth. With Mozart.Raphaël Sévère, Winner of the Tokyo Competition at the age of 12, named Revelation Instrumental Soloist at the Victoires de la Musique at the age of 15, Raphaël Sévère won the 1st Prize at the Young Concerts Artists International Competition in New York in November 2013 as well as eight of the ten special prizes.

“We were in perfect osmosis with the Orchestre de Chambre de Paris and its formidable musicians, and the meeting with Lars Vogt was a particularly strong moment for me. As a great Mozartian, Lars brought out new and even unexpected ideas from the score, which appeared obvious to us because they underlined the sincerity of Mozart’s speech. Then to record with the Modigliani is a dream come true! They have an exceptional experience and to work and think with them always gives rise to privileged moments.”

The instrument was a century old when Mozart gave it its first great concerto. All the facets of the clarinet are exploited through an eminently lyrical writing. Like a character in an opera, the clarinet in turn shines, becomes a confidant, whispers in the ear of a friend, gloats again, is sometimes gallant, joyful, serious, insolent. Through the genius of Mozart, the clarinet becomes the echo of the human soul. In the quintet, the instrument takes on a different guise, blending into the quartet in the spirit of salon music.

“Recording Mozart’s concerto and quintet is a fundamental step in the life of a clarinetist. It is thanks to these two masterpieces that the clarinet acquired its true letters of nobility, its popularity.”
